    Hello everyone (*˘︶˘*).。.:*♡ i hope you guys have been well! Here are a few snippets I shot this morning from a very quiet Sunday. I made bread, i read a little, I cleaned a little... it wasn't hyper-productive, but it was wonderful.
    I feel like we societally put a lot of emphasis on being productive all the time. We are told constantly to hustle; algorithms reward us for constantly, consistently creating content. We're not robots. There is so much beauty and wonder in idle time. And I am trying to remind myself that deserve to have this idle time.
    So, here are a few quiet moments.
    (Also, sorry for disappearing again. It's been stressful but things are getting better xx)
    I hope you enjoy the video and have a lovely day!
    The bread recipe~

    i picked this recipe because of the lovely ‪@cheyennebarton‬ It's soooo good!

    Hey guys! Hope you're all doing well at the moment. I had a very quiet, peaceful Sunday and I wanted to share a few snippets with you 💛
    We live in a world where we're pressured into being productive *all the time*... at least, I feel like we are. so if you're feeling a little frazzled or if you're in need of a few calm minutes, you're in the right place. I hope you like this video. Take care xx
    (P.S. this was my first time ever making bread!! It was delicious 🤗. Will link the recipe in the description~)

    I have been dealing with depression and anxiety from last 4 years. In this Coronavirus pandemic lockdown, I have lost the count of how many times I have cried in a single day/night. Repeatedly. I wanted to scream out loud. I did, too. It gets too much to handle. Yet, here I am, staying stronger than yesterday. Every day.
    To whoever's suffering through such extreme pain, you are incredible. Strong. And deserve to be peaceful.
    Thank you for this video. This is beyond beautiful. ❤️

      Hey I just wanted to say that you are very strong and I believe in you. I'm so sorry that you have to go through what you go through, but you've come so far and I think that counts for something. Take care! If you haven't done so already, I highly recommend talking to someone you trust. Or maybe even a stranger, it's really up to you. It really helps me when I talk to someone about what I'm feeling or dealing with because there's someone who listens, or maybe even can help, and it makes me feel less alone in this world. Stay strong, and keep fighting the good fight! Wish you the best!

    Being alone during my quarantine triggers my panic attacks and anxiety but whenever i share it to someone they would just change the topic. I'm dis appointed to the people who shares to their social media that they are the friends that understand people with mental issues but when someone is really suffering from it they are also the person who doesn't care

  • @scifikoala
    @scifikoala 4 роки тому +14

    I needed this today. Somehow, even though I work full time in a grocery store, I still feel this pressure to be super productive when I'm home. To work out, to clean, to apply for safer jobs, and especially to write. The writing thing is even more complicated because I have this deep fear that maybe I won't make it out of this year alive, or maybe someone I love won't and it will destroy me. So I have to write NOW, while I still can, maybe I'll lose my chance. But my mind is in a fog. I feel like I'm getting dumber, like my education is wearing off. I'm so tired and stressed all the time and everything is worse and worse and in theory, at least I can control my own actions but I CAN'T, not really. My mind has betrayed me

    • @christy-anne-jones
      @christy-anne-jones  4 роки тому +6

      I'm so sorry you feel like this. If it's any consolation, I've been there before. And this time is SO stressful and anxiety provoking, which is why I made this video. That fog could potentially be depersonalization, which is a common symptom of trauma/stress and is often linked to anxiety. I get depersonalization when I'm super duper stressed. The world feels far away and I feel dumb. BUT please know you're not alone. You're not dumb. My heart goes out to you. I hope you feel better soon. Take care xx

  • @carelican
    @carelican 4 роки тому +5

    omggg i wish i saw this first semester of the past school year. i worked so hard when i should have given myself a break. one day, i just broke. i was blaming my stress on everyone else, but it was really my fault. that threw me into a state of depression and some suicidal thoughts. this lasted for about a month, then i just started to feel empty. my grades were going down. when second semester started, i started showing symptoms of anxiety (panic attacks, shaking a lot, tense all the time, etc) and my therapist diagnosed me with anxiety. i am in a way grateful for it because it practically catapulted me out of my comfort zone, it widened my vision so i could see more bad things, but also good things. i hope that makes sense. anyway, remember not to work yourself too far past your limit guys. it's sort of like driving a car if you're late somewhere. you need to go a little faster to get there on time, but if you go too fast, you'll get pulled over and be more late than you would've been. take care of yourself. you deserve it.
    ps. i'm okay now! the anxiety has calmed down a little bit since i am not always working myself due to quarantine. and i am not having any more depressing thoughts, i think that was just an episode i went through. i feel happy and content now, and want to help as many people as i can with my story.

  • @haileyw2342
    @haileyw2342 4 роки тому +1

    we always tell ourselves to get things done, get off the couch, keep ourselves busy. but as time goes on we are programming our minds to guilt us for taking a break, to pause, and to take care of ourselves. we overlook our mental health, our well being. we forget to ask ourselves, are we doing okay? how are we doing today? it’s true we need to be productive but it’s just as important to slow down and take a breath, and really take care of ourselves and remember why we’re here. we are losing ourselves through society’s standards and we have to work on finding our true purpose in life. this quarantine was a much needed break for the world and everyone else that otherwise wouldn’t have ever stopped hustling for some self care.

    I have been suffering from a headache for the past two days. I force myself to go and go and go because sometimes, sometimes I’m afraid to sit still. I feel guilt. GUILT if I’m not being productive which is just plain horrible. I tend to instead plan and do ALL OF THE TIME with no rest in between and then I burn out and become depressed and miserable. This video was just what I needed... seriously. Thank you 🙏🏼

  • @Ophelia300
    @Ophelia300 4 роки тому

    There is such a big difference between being productive for the sake of being productive/to keep up with what society dictates and being (gently) productive to keep yourself sane and healthy.
    I think a lot of people think of the former as the only way to live, but the latter is what makes you feel better about life - even outside of quarantine.
    It was nice of you to give people the permission they won’t give themselves to just...be. :)

  • @Musicienne-DAB1995
    @Musicienne-DAB1995 3 роки тому

    Absolutely correct. First of all, productivity does not mean doing several things. You can achieve several tasks in a day which add no value to your life in the long run. This cultural phenomenon of productivity in the sense of being busy is a gimmick designed to enrich corporations. The consequences are stressed, burned out, and often low-paid workers tricked into thinking that they can control how they spend their time. Real productivity requires concentration on value-producing tasks. Once that task is finished, it is fine to embrace boredom. I learned this lesson (and am still learning) the hard way, as I kept burning out again and again, month after month. Constant busyness has wrecked my mind and ability to concentrate, so I am desperate that other people not fall into this trap. A brilliant, relaxing video.

So Christy, thanks for reminding me time and again that it's okay to be idle and unproductive. I have lots things I want to do. I'll be productive from tomorrow and take an unapologetic unproductive day someday to fill in my voids.

    This is first video of yours I watch. The vibe I'm getting is "it's okay to not try all the time.." I'm a mom of two kids. Honestly, it is all about your schedule. If you struggle with understanding how to fix your own every day program, get help ASAP. From your family or a professional. It is all about knowing what to do and when. You can't just give up on all, live in a dirty house, your children crying, no dinner ready... when you have a family, there's no "my bubble" you have responsibility of many things.

    Hi, thank you for this 🙏🏻 i’ve been in constant anxiety and pressure since lockdown because i am busy preparing for my upcoming board exam and i can’t really focus on studying considering what’s happening in the world nowadays, so i decided to just take the exam on May next year. In that way i can study comfortably and not be too pressured, like i “got my own time” kind of thing.
    But then my professor learned about it and she said that i should take the exam this october and other things (but i know in myself that im not yet ready) and i don’t know what to do. Thanks for this 🥺

    Thank you so very much for this video. I am so exhausted right now and I am trying to do everything to keep my folks safe during this pandemic and sometimes I haven't enough time to eat. I spend my days running around like a crazy person and it's stressful. I sat down to watch your video and it brought tears to my eyes. It was so nice to just sit down. I am really happy you showed the book "The Starless Sea" I am a big fan of "The Night Circus" and I can't wait to get a copy. Right now I am reading "The Mist in the Mirror" by Susan Hill. But I haven't had time to even sit down and read anything but the first page, over and over again. Something is always calling me away. I am so thankful that you put this message out because it made me realize that I have to take time out for me. And now that I just said that, I have to vacuum. LOL. Have a lovely beautiful day!! God bless!! =;)

    thank you... i really needed this... i have chronic fatigue syndrome but my mind still tells me that i need to be as productive as everyone else; i need the same grades, i need to use this free time to do something really productive. but im now beginning to realise, ill never get better or be happy if i keep pushing myself to the standards of a productive healthy person. right now im ill, and i just wish i could always convince myself simply getting out of bed and putting on clean clothes is enough

    As a stay at home mom I feel like if I do not clean the whole house every day that I’m a failure at my job. I have to remind myself that perfect housewives only exist on TV and in my head. I’m doing the best I can and that should be enough.
    Thank you for taking the time to make this video :)

    most of us don't have this luxury (make no mistake, this is a luxury), and it's not about prioritizing..it's just not a reality for a lot of people. i can't speak for anyone else but every day i am accountable to someone and for something and it's not always job related. another thing is...my opinion, if you're not productive, you are wasting your life. as someone mentioned below, taking a mental day (relaxing and resting) is productive - i fully agree with that if you work hard and deserve a break. if you're a potato sack doing nothing to contribute to society, then you are wasting your life.

      @René Bartley | She is trying to say, you don’t hv to be productive *now*. In other words, take today off and rest or do something that makes YOU happy. Don’t over-work yourself, take breaks from time to time, take a walk, etc. ❤️😴🌈

    Hey, I really hope you read this. I came to this video from the recommendations, but then I read your blog: your poems. And the way you write is so beautiful, I can’t explain it really; I can only feel it...if you know what I mean. I’m also into poetry but I left it 2 years ago due to all the academic pressure and well, my exam is still postponed. But this video and that poem about the empty notebook encouraged me to start writing again. And that really means a lot to me. Thank you so much! Sending you lots of positivity and love!

    This video came in the right place and at the right time. I just started to overthink and have a panic attack. I feel so awkward in my own body. Everything just feels so wrong. It's like everything I'm doing is wrong. I feel like a failure. Thank you for serving as a reminder in this moment when my life seemed to be crumbling down again.

    I think the universe is giving me a sign, me being 21 working 2 jobs having my own place and constantly moving sometimes I feel bad if I’m just laying down cause I feel like I have to Hustle I have to clean cook clean every chance I get and I have to remind myself it’s okay and I deserve rest. It would be disrespectful to myself to push myself any not allow myself to rest.

    Lately I've been really stressed about self sabotaging myself.
    Today for example, i was really scared because I am supossed to send a homework that I haven´t finished (wich is REALLY rare of me) so I was really ashamed of myself in that matter.
    This video almost made me cry, thank you.
    I'm going to speak to my teacher, tell her that I need a little bit more time, she's usually very nice and probably will understand.
    Again, thank you so much. English is not my first languaje so sorry for this comment sounding too "robotic" or something.
